In case your plugin has database that must be installed during the installation of the plugin, this is what you must do:

• Create a directory named install. The name of this directory must be exactly install and must not change.
  
  
• Put the install directory inside your plugin's directory. For example, if your plugin's directory is my_plugin, then you must put the install directory inside the my_plugin directory like this: my_plugin/install.
  
  
• The database which you want your plugin to install should be in an SQL file with a .sql extension and should be named install.sql.
  
  
• Put the install.sql file inside the install directory like so: my_plugin/install/install.sql.
  
  
• That will be it. During installation of your plugin, the install.sql will be installed and will be deleted after the installation.
